Both guys are in their primes, have P4P potential, they are dedicated/skilled/powerful Both can compete with any around 154/160 Not the biggest fan of Jermell fighting Trout (hasn't won a legit bout in years), but as long as he gets Hurd after... Jermall, he is obviously levels better then guys like Heiland/Centeno, throw him in with the big dogs and he will hang (Jacobs/BJS/GGG/Canelo) Not saying the Charlos have been matched weak, it has been decent competition they have been in with, but it's really time to let them loose IMO & match them with the best of the best... These guys are that talented, they maybe have star potential BUT have to beat matched against the best now and given a good push by AL Haymon...
how many of the better opponents are under the Haymon umbrella? Pretty sure they'd have to switch networks and/or travel to fight the bigger names out there.
Al would definitely pimp out Jermall out for a Golovkin fight. But Jermall? What is there for him? Hurd?
Jermell is ok. He can get Lara/Hurd bouts Jermall, well he's going to have to goto HBO cause Al has nada at 160
As a fan of both I agree. I think both of them are more than willing. I don't like Jermell fighting Trout but I think clearly it's a chess move building up to him fighting Hurd. I think they want a mutual opponent to see how they match up. Jermell has quite a few heads he can scalp at JMW and remain with his network. Jermall, the options at MW are more limited, he's gonna have to cross networks to make meaningful fights happen.
